Bug Description

Binary package hint: ekiga

On latest Hardy, Ekiga refuses to start. An error message pops up:

"No usable audio plugin detected
Ekiga didn't find any usable audio plugin. Make sure that your installation is correct."

I tried removing ~/.gconf/apps/ekiga/ in case some configuration files left from previous version spoil it up, but the result is still the same.

If the popup window is not closed in 2 minutes of so, Ekiga simply segfauts.

The problem has been solved elsewhere by installing the package libpt-1.11.2-plugins-alsa
